Primordial Era: With unparalleled comprehension, I am the Ancestor of Stars.

Chapter 49 Sudden Enlightenment, The Chaotic Void Realm

"Only devouring space? Or rather, the world?"

"Such bizarre and mysterious things still exist in the primordial world? And even Hongjun, or rather the Heavenly Dao, doesn't seem to care?"

"Are we just going to let it devour us like this?"

The solution to one problem often leads to the emergence of new ones.

After learning about the Immortal Island and the Great Thousand Worlds, and why he had fallen, Taihao couldn't help but have a few more questions in his mind.

"This vast world rests upon the Eastern Sea, not far from that thing; this must be the reason for its fall!"

"If I hadn't discovered the Three Immortal Islands beforehand, they would have revealed themselves in the primordial world after the destruction of the Middle Thousand Worlds, since the Lesser Thousand Worlds couldn't contain the Penglai Immortal Islands..."

"In that case, the problem is simple!"

While using his supernatural powers to "uproot" the Middle Thousand Worlds that contained the Three Immortal Islands from the primordial world, Taihao pondered the problem of the "black hole" that devours worlds.

After Taihao completely absorbed the Middle Thousand Worlds into Taihao Heaven, a term suddenly appeared in his mind: "black hole".

"Return to the Void!"

"The world returns to ruins!"

"The waters of the four seas converge here, yet the water here neither increases nor decreases; it is truly a bottomless abyss!"

Taihao gradually understood. By deciphering the true name of the "black hole," he gradually understood why Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao had no reaction to it and allowed it to devour the world.

"Because aside from Penglai Immortal Island and such special existences, the waters of the four seas are nothing more than the remains of small worlds, things that should have been destroyed in the first place!"

While it's called remains, it could also be described as garbage.

The small world is not a small chiliocosm.

Even in the lowest level and smallest space of a minor world, cultivators can still be born, thus transcending or ascending to a higher world.

But the small world is different. No matter how big it is, even as vast as a universe, it is difficult for any transcendent being to appear.

If there is such a thing as an unconditioned era, then the Small World is a typical example.

As one's cultivation level increases and one's knowledge expands...

Taihao became increasingly suspicious that the world he lived in before his rebirth was just a small world, perhaps even a marble in the pocket of some high-level being...

Just like how Taihao was able to put a vast world into the Chaos Pearl.

If the level is high enough, in some ways there is no difference between a Chaos Bead and a marble.

Treating the small world like marbles is not difficult.

Taihao now can even treat the Lesser Thousand Worlds like marbles!

But to treat the vast world, or even the primordial wilderness, as a marble... how high would that level have to be?

That's hard to imagine!

Even Pangu would be nothing more than an ant before such a being!

Then there's no need to mention Taihao.

So after thinking about it for a while, Taihao put the idea aside.

"Wouldn't a small world containing too much energy dilute the primordial spiritual energy? Even if it's just the remains of a small world?"

"That must be it! No matter how many beings there are in the primordial world, as long as they don't transcend, no matter how they cultivate, their spiritual energy will ultimately remain within the primordial world!"

"As soon as a cultivator dies, spiritual energy will return to the primordial world!"

"But smaller worlds are different. They absorb spiritual energy, and even if they are destroyed, they will not completely release it. Over time, even the primordial world could not withstand the endless division of smaller worlds!"

"So the purpose of this 'Return to the Ruins' is to dispose of 'garbage'?"

Just as Taihao had predicted, the Ruins of Return and the Hall of Annihilation shared some similarities.

One is dealing with the Dao traces and clearing the river channels, while the other is devouring the remains.

Exhale spiritual energy.

Although there are differences in the levels, they are essentially the same.

Thinking about it, Taihao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

"If that's the case, then wouldn't my newly created Taihao Heaven also need a 'garbage disposal plant'? Otherwise, I'm afraid it won't last forever!"

"Looks like we need to start planning early!"

After Taihao created the Taihao Heaven, he was not idle. He not only had to invest resources in it and find out what was missing, but he also had to explore its functions little by little.

After all, this thing has no lineage.

Fortunately, there is the Primordial World, which is even higher than the Great Thousand Worlds, to learn from!

Meanwhile, Taihao also had an idea about the waste treatment plant.

Isn't the soon-to-be-completed Little Taotie the best choice?

Since she eats everything anyway, she might as well contribute to the Taihao Heaven, make more contributions, and at the same time get a full meal—a win-win situation.

Having resolved the waste disposal issue, Taihao was in a good mood.

Then he also had the energy to concentrate his divine sense inside the Ruins.

Nothing can endlessly devour without changing itself.

Taotie's cultivation level was improved by devouring.

This is change.

But the Void is different; the spiritual energy it exhales is something that already exists in the small world itself, not a product of its digestion of the small world.

More importantly, from the beginning of time to the present, Guixu has neither expanded nor decreased.

So the question arises: where did the remnants of the world it devoured go? Taihao's thoughts raced, and he focused his divine sense into the interior of the Ruins of Return.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally managed to glimpse a clue from inside the Ruins of Return!

To be precise, it's behind Guixu!

Passing through that endless sea of ​​devouring beings, withstanding the pressure sweeping in from all directions, and enveloped by his undying primordial spirit, Taihao's divine essence, condensed from a wisp of his mind...

Nian, after arriving at the city of four seas!

Then he saw chaos!

That was a hazy world, different from the primordial wilderness!

"Beyond every boundary, this is... outer chaos!"

The scene that Taihao saw after his divine consciousness clone emerged from the other end of the Ruins surprised him, but also gave him some insight.

Because he already knew that there was chaos beyond chaos!

And a long time ago!

The time is early enough to be traced back to the end of the Dragon-Han Great Calamity.

At that time, Taihao glimpsed some secrets beyond the chaos from the river of the Great Dao, and learned what the struggle of the Great Dao was and what the massacre of the Great Dao was.

Therefore, he concluded that even if the chaos that enveloped the primordial world was endless, outside of it, even if there was no world of equal level, there was at least a plane similar to it.

Otherwise, wouldn't the struggle over the Great Dao become a one-man show?

The scene transmitted by the divine sense clone at this moment is the best proof!

"This is definitely not the chaos beyond the primordial world!"

In just a moment, Taihao came to a conclusion.

Why?

Because he could sense obvious flaws in it, and even a sense of déjà vu!

Where does this sense of déjà vu come from?

"The Chaos Pearl!"

"This world is remarkably similar to the miniature chaos I created!"

Taihao used the Chaos Pearl to construct a Lesser Chaos to envelop Taihao Heaven, so he was well aware that the Lesser Chaos was incomplete.

Even if the Chaos Pearl is restored and upgraded to a Chaos Treasure, it still cannot compare to the Great Chaos that encompasses the primordial world.

"If we must use hierarchical classifications, the Great Chaos that encompasses the primordial world could perhaps be called... the True Chaos Realm!"

"What I constructed using the Chaos Pearl can only be called the Chaotic Void Realm!"

Why is it a virtual realm?

Because compared to the true world, it is not complete enough!

The most fatal flaw is the lack of rules! The laws are incomplete!

No matter how much a being born from the void cultivates, the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm is the limit. Perhaps there are exceptionally talented individuals who can cultivate to the half-step Primordial Realm, but given the flaws in the rules, there is absolutely no possibility of proving the Primordial Realm!

This has nothing to do with talent, but is rather locked in by the world one lives in.

The primordial world where Taihao lived was undoubtedly top-tier, capable of giving birth to several saints on par with Hunyuan.

The Chaotic True Realm is even more so, incredibly close to the Great Dao! Theoretically speaking, everyone has a chance in the struggle for the Great Dao, but the degree of the chance varies.

The real world and the virtual world are worlds apart.

Not only are the opportunities in the Void Realm fewer, but the number of laws to cultivate and the path to enlightenment are also much smaller!

At this moment, the small chaos observed by Taihao's divine sense can be described as a virtual realm.

Therefore, many of the things that Taihao could do in the Chaos Pearl can still be reproduced here.

For example, in the blink of an eye, divine thought can cover half of the chaotic void.

Although it was just a wisp of divine thought, Hunyuan was still Hunyuan, and it was qualitatively different from a Quasi-Saint.

Even a quasi-saint's divine sense, let alone a single wisp, even if all of it were concentrated, could not possibly cover half of the void world and then envelop the entire void world as casually as Taihao!

除.

Are there living beings in the void?

"Who dares disturb my slumber!"

A deep voice suddenly rang out, filled with obvious anger.

It seems that Qingmeng was disturbed because of Taihao's unbridled divine gaze.

Then, in the next instant, endless dark light surged toward Taihao's divine consciousness clone, as if to shatter him into pieces.

But Taihao ignored it and instead looked at it thoughtfully.

"His strength is close to that of a quasi-saint, and his law is... the Law of Darkness? Not high, not low, ranking in the middle among the three thousand laws."

Soon, Taihao made an assessment of this existence.

Without waiting for it to react, the divine sense clone casually waved its hand, erasing the attack it had launched, as well as its very existence.

comminicate?

There is absolutely no need to communicate with such beings; Taihao can deduce it himself with just a little observation.

mercy?

Its cultivation, power, and vision are all on a completely different level. It is not even in the same dimension as Taihao. To Taihao, it is no different from an ant.

Whether intentional or unintentional, is there any need to feel sad or sentimental about killing an ant?

After Taihao killed this mysterious being, something seemed to change in the entire Chaos Void Realm, but it quickly stopped and returned to its ancient stillness, as if nothing had happened.

But Taihao keenly sensed something he had seen before from that slight change.

The Great Millstone of Destruction!
